Hi guys.... I got my 20" AME 3-piece wheels RECONDITION with HYPERSILVER powder-coat..... and i also took some pics of the scrapping on the driver side. It has nothing to do with the fender rolling. so yea.....do anybody have this problem? do anyone know how to fix this problem? any comments on what to do? any opinions? got advice?

try taking out your fender lining then see if it still rubs.

abboushi

NO! do not take out the fender Liner, under the driver side wheel well is your engine harness and once you get the rubbing and scrubbing on them its all over, your ABS, airbag and ecu wires are gone, and your car will have electrical problems up the A_ _ oh yeah it happened to me so either get smaller wheels or raise suspension it was to late for me. and even after i re spliced all my wires i still had issues.
here was my car looked Damn good but paid for it in the end

pimpmobile

thanks for the advice abboushi. i was thinking about taking out the lining.....thank god i didnt, but dude i think theres more rubbing on the body of the car. Do you guys see the rubbing that scraped right thru the lining to bare metal??? maybe i should hammer it in.....maybe not...

Here's your two choices:

1) raise the car up

2) buy 19's

I dunno how well it works, but Autozone sells a little kit consisting of rubber pieces that are suppose to raise a vehicle up by inserting them inbetween the coils. This might allow you to "tweak" the height.

pimpmobile

i might give that a try but the problem is.....i dont want the car to sit any higher. bummer cuz the driver side is different from the right side. the driver side frame is closer to the wheels then on the passenger side.

Um 20x?? And what was your offset? Just to know, 2 inch drop wow I think that's lower than the espelirs. Maybe you should change the tire size

Ok, so what new wheels are you getting?

you probably can only go 1 in lower when have 20'
or make it wide body and add spacers!!! Go all wild!

3) Get the correct sized tires for the 20" wheels

The SC has very shallow front fenders, and 255 width 20" tires are a pain in the butt on lowered GS's much less coupes. You need a different sized front tire. There are options, but they can get pricey.

You can try to go cheaper with a Hankook 225/35, but you would probably be better served with a Continental 235/30-20
